It's game day, yo

Kansas City is a fun place to be right now. Not many rivalry's can match MU's and KU's mutual hate for one another (although after living in Lawrence for three years and having countless friends there, I can't hate too much -- just a smidge). And during the last couple of days, leading up to this momentous game which will determine who goes to the National Championship (CRAZY), things have been nuts, in a really good way (minus those idiotic people touting Missouri 183, Lawrence 0 --- that isn't cool nor funny).

Last night, in the Power and Light District, tigers were all over the place after the Mizzou pep rally. Ryan was wearing Tom's Mizzou hat and we routinely had people singing the fight song to us. Then this morning, Ryan and I went to the grocery store today and just about every darn person in there was decked out in either MU or KU gear. Same thing at the bank. Our teller went to K State and was actually hoping that both MU and KU lose. Good luck with that, buddy.

With the big game just hours away, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the awesomeness of this day and the game...who would have thunk it would be this big?

In celebration of the big game, here are some pics from last night's poker tourney. Check out these game faces!
